The Battle of Yellow Bayou took place on May 18, 1864 in Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana between Union and Confederate forces. After learning of Confederate forces in Yellow Bayou, Brig. Gen. Joseph A. Mower was ordered to halt their advance. Union forces subsequently attacked the Confederates and drove them back to their main line. The Confederates then counter-attacked, forcing the Union forces to retreat, until they eventually repulsed the Confederate attack. This “see-saw” action lasted a few hours, until the ground cover caught fire and both sides were forced to retreat.

  • La bataille de Yelow Bayou s'est déroulée le 18 mai 1864 dans la paroisse d'Avoyelles, en Louisiane entre les forces de l'Union et confédérées. Après avoir appris la présence de forces confédérées dans le Yellow Bayou, le brigadier général Joseph A. Mower reçoit l'ordre de stopper leur progression. Les forces de l'Union attaquent ensuite les confédérés et les repoussent vers leur ligne principale. Les confédérés contre-attaquent ensuite, obligeant les forces de l'Union à retraiter, jusqu'à ce qu'elles repoussent finalement l'attaque confédérée. Cette action en « balancier » dure quelques heures, jusqu'à ce que le sol prenne feu, et les deux côtés sont forcés à battre en retraite. (fr)
